I am so sorry Rebecca. I wish not a single woman more would gain membership to this widows club. there is absolutely nothing worse. we don't only lose our person, we lose our own identity. our entire world shatters! Our finances disappear. In our case our health insurance vanished! Everything! I know a widow.....who not only lost her husband, she lost him in their house fire! So, she lost her husband and her home! All their memories. Gone! In my case, I lost my health. My physical being. My children injured. Surgeries they endured without their mom or dad there with them to soothe them. It's all so heavy. Give it to God....only he can lift that weight for you! Widowhood is so hard to navigate. I am praying over you for the healing and restoration of your heart. :( I am so sorry.
Thank you. I needed to hear that today. Today I went for a mammogram and they found something different on my right breast. I need to do a biopsy. I ask for your prayers that it will all turn out ok if God wills it. Thank you for your channel. God bless you.
you got it Peggy! I just walked that path a few months ago.....lay all that worry and anxiety at the foot of Jesus! Don't even give it an ounce of energy until the day of your biopsy! That helped me so much get through that experience and I am praying that your story ends up like mine....to be nothing to worry about!
I felt like I was the only one in the room with you. Thank you for your uplifting words. I have to remind myself I am a daughter of the most high. Thank you Sweet Heart for your obedience today. This old girl definitely needed to hear this today. God is Sooo Good !!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️
Wow wow ... This just touched me to the core of my heart. With tears and feeling his presence through you 🕊️🙏🤗❤️ thank you so much Heather for doing exactly what our Lord has called you to do. I love you Heather.
That which is not of faith is sin. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto thine own understanding in all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy paths.
My daughter just went thru something scary this week. I told her almost the same things you said. God has not given us a spirit of fear. And if one door closes, He will open another. And of course, everything worked out just fine. Thank you Jesus.
Prayer request for my husband and I. I would like a way to open up for us to move to a homestead in Missouri to grow food, build a town and a place of worship, give homes to my siblings and daughter, and anything else the Lord would like to do there. Thank you, Kneady❣️
Thank you for the encouraging words. My husband passed away 3 months ago. We are both believers and I know I will see him again and I am so great full to God for that. However, I’m struggling. I feel like this black cloud will never lift. Maybe my expectations are to high, but I thought that after 3 months I would be doing better. If you or anyone else have any words of wisdom I welcome them. I also covet this groups prayers. Thank you
I am so so sorry. There is nothing heavier than that of a widows heart. I have sat in that deep sorrow. When your person dies, everything dies with them. A huge piece of who you are! I know for me,, my entire identity vanished! Who was I, if not Matt's wife? Being so critically injured and stuck in a hospital unable to move just made it all that much harder. Add to that injured children, that I was not able to see because of Covid, and I was isolated, injured, and alone. Dark days. I had no idea that sitting in that season, I had to be shattered! So that God could rebuild me. You my sweet sister, are sitting in the shattered season. But trust in Him, that he will rebuild you. And you will grow and realize just how strong you really are! You will be made anew! And your purpose, your roots, will be deeper! Have faith! I am praying for you!
The deeper the grief, the deeper the healing has to go... Be still, and let His deep peace do its work. Be patient, and let Him do His work in you. And at the Right Time, you will emerge and bloom again. He is preparing you for your life ahead. Just keep going. He will bring you through. Love, hugs and prayers. ❤🫂🙏✝️🦋🌷
Bless you. Really, 3 months is a very short time. I’m praying God strengthen and help you and lift you up. Here’s a good song that also includes how God will lift us up if we just keep on crying out to Jesus. It’s by Third Day called Cry Out To Jesus. 💐
Everyone’s grief is different. It has been 10 years since my mom died and I still get sad sometimes. I miss her and that will never go away and I wouldn’t want it to. Your grief will change over time. The Lord is with you through this difficult time, walking with you everyday giving you peace and Hope. He knows how you feel, He loves you and wants the best for you. You will feel joy again. Give yourself the time you need to grieve. I will be praying for you. ✝️❤️
Amen! Heather I believe many need to hear this, especially in the world we live in right now. This is not my home. In my walk with God for the past 4 years I have learned that it doesn't have to be complicated. I may not have scripture memorized word for word, but I know that's ok. God wants me just to talk with him, pray to him, and just make him a part of my life. To love Him as He loved us.
Amen! Great prayer circle and very encouraging! I do suffer from depression and loss of hope at times. I feel at times God has rejected me. I pray that it is not so and am blessed to live another day.
How true that is! God WILL give us more than we take because He wants us to learn to dump it at His feet and trust Him to be WHO He is...the I AM. It's not IF He will do that it's just a matter of WHEN. I struggle with anxiety and fear. It's sin and God tells me DO NOT FEAR! 365 times He tells me that in scripture. Thank you for your discussing this! I needed it...again!
AMEN!!!!!!! You have me thrown my shoe across the room over here, Vicki! hahahaha AMEN!!!! Shame can splinter into so many things......separate and divide. It's so heavy to carry! We feel shame when we know we are listening to the enemy whispering to us, we know we shouldn't.....we need to rise up and REBUKE it in the MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS! Amen!
@@suzanneclark8579 we all have those emotions. They are human emotions. But to allow those emotions to build and fester, it is saying that God is not big enough to help me and to take care of me.
2 Tim. 1:7 God used this verse to heal my heart from the fear and hurt from a sexual assault as a young teen. For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. I have repeated so many years that I hear my son use it as he preaches. My DIL uses it often as well. You are so right this message was how I have focused on God this year. Just seek Jesus he is within you if you have that relationship with him. I have focused on becoming a prayer warrior this year.
Thank you so much Heather. I have experienced so much pain and grief as I care for my disabled son, and watch him endure so much, from life altering brain surgery to daily life struggles to survive. For 43 years I have laid my burdens down for the Lord to carry. I would never have been able to endure the grief and pain, without our Lord, Jesus Christ, who carries us though the most grievous of times to the happiest of times.
AMEN! Praying for your son......I think there is a special place at the wedding table for people who suffer so much, so deeply, I truly believe that! The Lord uses them in such incredible ways, to touch so many hearts! They serve a great purpose.
Heather, I’ve been living in fear since January with all these ear problems. My fears are that every changes in my ears are because I am getting worse or “what if it’s a serious health problem” OMG I keep thinking like this 😭. God please I rebook all fears from my mind, souls and body. God please grant me peace, restoration/health and lots of happiness- please god I ask in Jesus name. Amen. 🙏🙏🙏 Heather please keep me in your prayers please and keep these Friday’s circle prayers ~ your a god sent. ❤️
Heather, thank you for your openness and your willingness to be vulnerable before the Lord and us. I love that you are passionate. ❤❤ Thank you for this timely message.
Thank you so much for being here and sitting with me in all of it. Before really knowing my Savior, I would have been too embarrassed to share or to sit and speak with no teeth, injured, feeling insecure, less than, ashamed. Shame is a wicked tool the enemy uses to keep us from our work. So, I pray and give it to God.....and keep moving forward as he guides me. Surrender.....I am still in this season of surrender.
Thank you Heather, your words were meant for me. I will try to shake off my constant fear and overwhelm now that I know it's not pleasing to or of our Lord.
Heather, you are so inspirational to me. You feel like a friend that I have always known and loved. I am struggling with what my purpose is and how I find it. I feel like watching your videos is helping me to stay calm and focused on what I can do to make myself stronger and better able to not walk in fear. I’m glad that I found your channel, and look forward to having your inspiration carry me through these difficult and dangerous times. The Lord most certainly has touched your heart and I am sure that He is so very proud of you. ❤
@@TheKneadyHomesteaderI needed to hear that! In past videos you mention there is purpose in the pain, purpose in the suffering. Those words have kept me going. 🙏🏼
Thank you Heather, This video uplifted me so much, We need the prayers of those who Love The Lord. God is working through you please Never stop posting these videos. 🙏💞🙏
You are so welcome! Thank you for that...... my spirit appreciates hearing that this is something that resonates with you! Such a blessing. I love when the Holy Spirit moves and works!
Thank you Heather for your message. We all have worth. It is 8 months since my beloved passed away. Sometimes I do feel lost. But, I pray and cry. Tears can also be cathartic. I know that God has my back. We so need to turn off all of the negativity around us and be and believe in the Lord's presence. And, you are so right when you say there is nothing new under the sun. It's just another season. Prayers, peace and blessings to you and your family.
Awh, Heather, thank you. These are words that I very much needed to hear. Please keep praying for my husband, Brendan, who had a severe stroke in February 2022. He still is not mobile and has problems with speech accompanied by a nasty head tremor. Thank you so much. You are truly special. Love from N. Ireland. ❤
Prayers please for my children.. Pray that God dissolves the enemy in their lives and puts the right people in their lives. Society looks so enticing to them .. Pray that God wraps his arms around them and show them that HE is what they need not the world or the things in the world. Pray for this momma's heart as well. Thank you and Prayer for all of you..
Thank you so much Lord for this video and for Heather's walk in public with you. Such a great testimony. I needed this strength today as I am struggling with shingles right now. In my mouth, too. I'd appreciate some prayer.❤ Thank you Father for always being faithful.
You are so welcome and I am covering you in healing prayers for total restoration! Lord, cover Anita in this deep time of physical pain and suffering, Father! Lift it for her, Lord!
Father I ask that you heal Anita, please take away the pain of these shingles and dry them up. Be close to Anita and watch over her and her family to, In Jesus Mighty Name I Pray Amen!
I love when someone is fired up, because its contagious 🔥👍....when i caught this fire, i never looked back, i jumped all in, in the deep end, and kept on swimming. Jus recently in the past few years, its been pretty lonely because i have no Christian women friends. But this Friday prayer circle has helped me a lot. Your fire and passion has renewed me. This week i learned the "why" he has chosen my lifetime cross for me....and now i see clearly what it means and i literally can carry it in a completely different way. Praise Jesus for ever and ever and ever❤️❤️❤️❤️
AMEN!!!! Preach it, Sis!!!! YESSSSS!!!! Sometimes, when we are in the deep....carrying that weight of our own cross, we don't understand why, and sometimes the Lord makes it clear we aren't supposed to understand. But will you thank me for trusting you with this weight, even if I never tell you why??? Lord, YES!!! YES I WILL! Consider it all joy, brethren! All for God's Glory! I am so glad you are enjoying our Fridays together.....even if it means listening to me rant a bit. hahaha God bless you, sis! God is good all the time, and he has us!
Oh my goodness Heather! You are speaking directly to me about stress, anxiety and fear. Girl… thank you for heeding Gods message today. Can everyone please pray for me and my family? From my personal life to my new job I am being attacked by people and the evil one. It’s been a huge battle. Please help. Thank you so so much. God bless you all.
Heather, you spoke to me today!! I thank you for your encouragement in how to pray and I am going through many struggles right now and I have laid my burdens at God's feet!! I thank God for you!! Bless you for your deep faith and help for alot of Christians who need this encouragement!! Amen!!
That’s me I am frozen. I do pray & read scripture every day. I have anxiety that freezes me. I give it to the Lord all the time. I am also dealing with PTSD & physical issues. Please pray for me. Lord, help. Thank you for never leaving me. Amen
Your message today was much needed. Thank you for loving your fellow man so much to share your love and God's love for us all. Blessing to you and your family.
Heather, I have always lived in a fear.. several in fact, don't know why or where they have come from. You helped me beyond measure tonight. Starting at bedtime I am going to be in charge of all my fear, anxiety, depression and use my power to overcome my feelings and I will pray to find what my calling is. That is my prayer, what is my calling to serve you Lord. Heather, thank you for tonight.. you have opened my heart and I intend to use my power to move forward.. AMEN
Absolutely!!!!! Lord, cover Karin's daughters, and her entire family, Lord! The Holy Spirit is always working and moving, and I have faith that whatever the outcome, it will be to God's glory, that His will be done! Amen!
I do not have a spirit of fear. I know Jesus will help me but we are all human. I'm so happy to see you and your family. I saw a message from you but it disappeared before I could read it. It was 3 days ago. Lv and Prayers to all.
Thank u Heather…I am sitting here crying….we lost our son three days ago, I am so sad…please please prayer warriors pray for us…our hearts are broken, I believe he is with our God but this morning I am feeling so lost…needed your words…and will give it to him…please pray he sends us strength…
Well this message is for me, what a relief when you give it to God I'm so glad I'm leaning on Him. Do I still have alot of bad days yes I do. I think about the footsteps prayer, when those bad days come know then He is carrying you. I hope everyone today just ask him to carry me through this ruff patch and he will. Jesus is real and He loves us all, Hallelujah!
Oh Heather, you are such a blessing to me and so many others! As I watched you today, the tears just kept flowing. I lost my husband last year and since then, I have had so many financial problems. I am 75 and living on social security and now that he is gone, the amount of $$ that comes in is just not enough to pay all the bills. Everything has gone up except the amount of money I get each month. I had a part time job at my local church but was let go because they implemented a software program that took the place of my job, and at my age nobody wants to even give me in interview. I know that God is right here with me and His plan for the remainder of my life is the best plan. I trust Him with every part of my being. Whatever that is, I know He knows what is best. Please pray for the Holy Spirit to guide my steps in this season and I thank you for your sweet soul and having this prayer circle every Friday! God bless you and your family....Nancy H
Covering you in prayers, Nancy! Stories like yours infuriate me and put such a fire in my belly! This should not be happening......not in our country, where all of us pay into the system to care for folks like yourself! It's just so wrong. Have faith.......the Lord will always protect his children!
Thank you sweet Heather for taking the time to respond to my email. I guess the most surprising thing to me was when my church let me go right after my husband passed and they knew my situation, but I have asked God to help me forgive those who made that decision. I have not been back there since and I watch it online because the teaching is really good with expository teaching which I love. I did order the book that you said you are using and even though I have been a believer since I was 18 years old, more Bible study is what I need. Thank you again...I have been praying for you since you lost your precious husband and for your little ones too.
I love these prayer meeting devotional talks. I love praying and giving encouragement. Thank you for sharing in weakness and in strength. Your heart is so loving and I'm so thankful I found your channel Ms. Heather. Blessings on His Word in our lives. Amen. It's like a celebration into the Lord!🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Thank You Heather, this has touched me so much bringing tears bc I could feel his presence thru your words. I try to leave my stress at his feet bc I cant handle everything I am going thru (grief n health issues) Great reminder this video was!! Love you❤
You are so Amazing. I know where your strength came from. Your strength came only from God. It would be so Wonderful if everyone would call upon God for their needs. Thank you so much for encouraging others to pray to Our God because he will answer our prayers. Love you for your walk with God and spread his words to others so that others might give their hearts to him. God Bless You in all Abundance.
God had gifted you with teaching. I could listen to you all day. Love the fire. I've heard it said that God never gives you more than HE can carry. You bless me everytime I watch you. Much love to you and your family my sister.
Wow, thank you and I LOVE THAT!!!! God never gives you more than HE can carry! AMEN!!!!! I am kicking off my shoes and throwing it across the room right now! hahahahaha That is a WORD!!!!!
Hello fellow prayer warriors and those of us that are struggling with something. Preach it Miss Heather❣️❣️❣️❣️ Oh my goodness my sweet friend. You were walking down my street in many ways!!! I don’t have fear because He has our days in His hands. But,I catch myself not studying like I once did and not being as close as I once was. Thanks for the reminder…. It is like a kiss on the cheek from The Most High God💖💖💖💖💖
I need lots of prayers, I'm trying to relearn how to walk and don't feel I can. It's been almost 2 years and my energy is running out. Please, and thank you all. Prayers to you all❤
This is your best and most meaningful video yet! I’ve been struggling for years…coming into my strength….I just needed those words….that extra push….Thankyou! I watch all of your videos…this one truly…touched me…made me feel…I can push on…I’m valuable ….loved!
YOU ARE!!!!! Because of His great love for YOU!!!!! Amen! I appreciate your kind words and I am so thankful this video spoke to your heart in that way. Thank you Holy Spirit!
Heather, few weeks ago I requested prayer for my 40 year old son with lymphoma. Blake was called to his Heavenly home on August 22 and I can tell you I rejoice he’s no longer suffering. I can also tell you our hearts are shattered. There is a great void in our lives that I know God will fill eventually. Am I angry with God? Maybe-I just feel so hurt that the many prayers we and so, so many others prayed on my sweet son’s behalf were not answered with earthly healing for him.. Yes, I know God had another plan-but Blake’s almost 3 year old son is without his dad-and he had a great one. His loving wife is without her wonderful husband and so many people who loved Blake are now adjusting to life without him in it. Depression? Maybe that’s what I’m feeling but as of now I don’t know what to do with it. I realize I’m not the first person to lose someone they love dearly and others have gone forward but I just don’t see how at the present. I pray but just feel that God doesn’t hear me anymore. Please pray that something shifts within me and I can come out of the awful sadness I never I had any idea could feel. Thanks for listening.
Oh Carolyn......I know we have spoken, but I just wanted you to know I am still praying over you and your family. It is OK, to sit and be still. It is ok, to be frozen with pain. God knows. He knows! He will sit with you in that valley. In that cleft of the rock. Sit and be still. Grieve. You don't have to move from that right now. Just sit and be still in it. The Holy Spirit will move you from that place when your heart is ready. And, from my own grief I have learned that God can take our anger upon his shoulders and endure it. He knows........ but will you thank me for trusting you with this pain, even if I never tell you why? That is his question to us, I truly believe. He is entrusting you, Blake's wife, his son......with this experience. With this cross to carry for a reason, even if it is never revealed to you. Consider it all joy....all part of work for the Kingdom.....and I truly believe there is a special honor to widows.....and orphans....... they are the most precious in God's eyes in the Bible. I hold onto that, sometimes with a death grip!
I needed this. I am in that spirit of mourning. Not because of a serious loss, but because of physical, spiritual and financial persecution I never could have imagined. Our hens, the ones that not only fed us through job loss and inability to get unemployment through evil and tyranny, are now all gone. The hardest part is that our circumstance is not the last attack. Our local village is growing an evil power that I myself have never seen in the years we’ve been here. I am grieving. The past two weeks I e been so angry and deeply sad. Asking the whys, the how’s and even the ifs. God has answered and it may not be a no, it may be just be “a little while”. I am okay, but those “what ifs” have crawled out in the wee hours wondering how God will pick us up in the dumpster fire of the world . I have started reading Old Testament again, God us reminding me of Moses and the frustration God had with him for doubting His abilities and promises. Then again with Pharaoh who purposely ignored God and cause mass famine and outbreaks on his people for His unbelief and disobedience. Then…The Holy Spirit spoke to me through your tenderness. After several years in fight or flight mode, I have given those hens to someone we know and I in a time of deep grief and healing. We are living in a very scary place right now with the inability to leave. We are stuck here…BUT GOD. It’s time to block out the chaos around us and for me to just bathe in Gods Word. I haven’t been to church regularly in a year. I haven’t had it in me to continue the movements. When I do go, I’ve been saying “God, I’ll just sit with You. I just need to sit with you.” Thank you for this. God is moving. You are right. No Spirit of fear. Stop trying to lean on my own understanding and be still. God is who He says He is. I’m usually the prayer warrior. Been that way for years. It’s what God blessed me with. This time. I’m tired. I’m really tired and I need to physically and spiritually heal. I pray God will guide our footsteps and that He will reach everyone in deep despair. We have a God who Is who He says He Is. Amen.
My sweet sister in Christ, oh how it moved me to hear you extolling our Lord in the midst of your suffering! Please, please return to church. I speak from experience.... we are not meant to go it alone. you need the fellowship, and they need you. "And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near." Heb 10:24-25 ❤❤
@@norasgarden4373 Thank you so much for your kind comment. Could you please keep me in prayer? I haven’t been sleeping well chronically for a few years now. Satan knows how to manipulate and so that is one reason that keeps me from going. I’ve been in fight or flight mode for the past three years or so. My husband and daughter go regularly.. I think I’ve felt as though nobody there really cares about us. We’re there, but unless you’re in a group that knows each other, well, nobody notices. I miss the church we used to frequent. It was a smaller church, but not one our daughter could thrive in as there weren’t many children her age. I am broken at the moment, but I do know Gods light shines through broken vessels. My intent is to get back to church regularly. I covet your prayers to find rest in my body and soul. To get back to a good schedule for my family and I. Ty for your kind comment. ❤
@@norasgarden4373 I came back to say thank you again. The Holy Spirit spoke today. I felt prayed over and Gods presence. I received text from my daughters youth group Pastor. She asked everyone for help in painting the youth group area and clean up the yard. I didn’t think we would go, but asked my husband, thinking he’d be much later getting out. Turned out he was leaving early for the day. I asked if we could serve as a family in helping. They said yes. So today, instead of self pity, God filled my heart with JOY that I haven’t felt in a while. Just by serving Him and those who needed it. Praise God. Ty for your prayer.God is speaking to my heart and filling it with needed healing.
I always look forward to praying with you on your Fridays video. Blessings. What you say is so true. We can get our earful of message that may impact our decision-making based more on fear instead of the guidance of the Holy Spirit
I need prayer for my children they are having such a hard time keeping their home. There is not work. Please pray for them to find their way. To have faith and know God will provide even down to the last second. Please pray for all my children to leave the world behind and focus on God's purpose for them thank you
Thank you..i needed to hear that darling..i admit im having a really hard time with my family.and i am at the end not knowing which way or where to turn..just watching and listening to you gives me some kind of hope..thank you heather..god bless you and your family always.xoxo🙏❤🙏❤
Heather, it has been such an exhausting and demoralizing period of time in my life. I am still in the process of attempting to get guardianship of my twins on the autism spectrum after their father died in January. The step witch is refusing to allow me any access to my family, and the legal battles continue. I saw a new lawyer last Monday, and we submitted a complaint to the court on Wednesday afternoon. I'm hoping for a hearing date sooner rather than later, and attempting to get Josh and Joe to a safe and secure home where their needs are being met. It's been a month since the guys were allowed to see me or spend time with me due to the horrific and obscene actions of family members on their father's side of the family. They just really need to have the stability of knowing that their mom loves them and wants only the best for them. I'm grateful for your prayers.
Father God, I pray for your tender mercies, and your hand to be over Deb and her beloved children....Lord, you know what's going on in this situation, and you know the enemies tactics.....I pray for healing and restoration for this family and the reuniting of mother and child, Father God. Cover her as she walks this inconceivable painful path.....sit with her Father God as she endures this trial.....surround her with the people she needs to help her.....and root her deep in her faith and trust in you, Lord.....that you will not let her fall, no matter what the outcome, you will use it for good.....I pray this in the mighty and Holy name of your son, Yeshua, Jesus Christ Almighty, Amen!
I struggle constantly....had a bad bout this am, and then the guilt I feel is so heavy! I needed this. I wamt to thank you Heather, you are so right! I need to share an experience I had about 4 months ago. I was sitting on the couch watching tv and I heard in my spirit out of no where I CHOSE YOU...I knew without a doubt it was the Lord, but I did not know what it meant. I am such a back slider at times and I feel so unworthy, but I still know it was Him. I am asking prayer for my daughters who have been on the outs for years. They never talk and we cannot be a family, they need salvation. also for my friend Dana who has cancer and chemo is not working. Cancer is spreading fast and she is losing her faith.....please pray. Thank you
Came across your message. Thank you for this word. Such a refreshing and simple word and right on time with what is going on in our world. You’re a blessing
Amen, Heather! The degrridation in this country is appalling and I have to wonder how long God will put up with it... I Pray that our country returns to God in a huge way, because this country will fall without him! I Pray for the children in our country, I pray that God shields them from all of the evil and that he protects them from those who want to do harm to them. God Bless you Heather and everyone who reads this. Have a blessed day!
Satan is not hiding anymore, and his minions are definitely loud and proud about doing his bidding.....and the enemy is definitely targeting our children in every way possible! The Lord told us how the end days would be.....it only gets worse from here I'm afraid. But not for long! We know how the story ends, hold onto that!
I really cannot understand how lomg God will tollerate the evil saying good and good saying evil…I am frustrated to see no judgment and sowing and reaping is happening. Thank you for having these Fridays! 😀🙏🏼
Yes....that evil spirit has tried to destroy me all my life..... Welllll.....i learned how to be free of it...REPENTED of everything i knew of....FORGAVE everyone i could think of ...then REBUKED IT.. VOILA !!! It is gone !!!! Never to return..... ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Heather this video came at a perfect time. I felt you were talking to me. I have felt lost these past couple of days. I have cried more than I have in years. I’m in a tractor during the day and it gives me time to think. I have been talking to our Father. I want to get closer to him. I feel like time has flown by and is flying by so fast since my children were little. My children are gifts from our Father and I am so thankful he picked me for their mom. I got even more gifts in my grandchildren. He has given me so much more than I feel I deserve and I am grateful. I pray that he hears my prayers and let’s me get closer to him. As I have gotten older I realize I have missed so many years of not having our Father not only in my life but my heart. Please keep these videos coming. I love hearing the word of God. Can’t wait for the new Barn 45 Bible study to start. Those have meant the world to me.
Draw near to God, and He WILL draw near to you. It’s a promise! And it’s the best kind of promise, straight from the Word of THE Promise Keeper, our LORD God! 🙌🏻✝️💖 Thank you Lord, Creator, Father for giving Jeannie a desire for more of You! Thank you for giving time to spend in prayer WITH You. I ask that You surround her with Your Holy Spirit Presence today, utterly fill mind and heart and every cell of her being with Your Light. Draw near and saturate her life with Your Word, with people who speak Your Truth and Your love and Your strength and Your joy! Open the eyes of mind and heart with Your understanding and give a hunger and thirst for the things of You that can never be satisfied. Lord, draw near. Lord, show Your light, Your Love, Your guiding hand. ~Amen and amen!
Thank you Heather and this precious Friday prayer circle community! Standing in the Lord’s strength and grace another day, what a gift! Thank you Father God for this time to glorify you in this season. I love you all. 💖😘 Please pray for youtuber, Kelly Isabelle DiMarco. Her husband, Tim, has been battling cancer for over a year. He’s currently back in the hospital fighting an infection. Thank you so much.
AMEN!!!!!! I can't wait!!!! Our skin suits....our earthly flesh suits have us all twisted sometimes, focused on the wrong things! Focused on the things the enemy tries to distract us with because he doesn't want us to know how important we are, how much we are loved by our Creator! Nothing can take us away from Him when our hearts are his.
What a word from the Lord!!! Thank you Heather!!! Almost everything you said I am walking through in my life right now! Thank you for doing what God tells you to do! When you said if this is going on in your life right now and the wind chimes blew in the background I just busted out crying and felt the Lord was sitting in front of me through you answering all of my questions!! Thank you again!
Thank you so much for this prayer circle. Many are blessed because of your wise words of wisdom! Your eyes sparkle with the light of Christ. I am so grateful! Bless You! Sending love from Nina in Colorado.
Thank you Heather. I struggle with fear n need to memorize scripture that will help me fight that. Some ppl mention how much they want the Lord to come back n say so with such excitement. The thing that holds me back is knowing only one son has followed the Lord! I have two sons n one daughter of my adult children that have not come to believe!😢. Do I love my children too much bc of this! I think I can’t let it b a distraction but I don’t want them to b left behind if the Lord returns! Prayer please!💕🙏✝️🥰
I completely understand on many levels.....I will pray for your babies, that the seek and find the lover of their souls..... I hold onto faith. The Lord doesn't want anyone left behind and in these last days, we will see the great awakening unfold. I believe that in my spirit.
Begin to ask the Lord to send someone into ea unsaved adult child's life that they can relate to. It works, I've done it. Then thank him in advance & trust him to follow thru. Psalm 91:11
Thank you Heather for sharing your passion about the “noise” you are right on target and I appreciate you sharing your advice. This video was a blessing to me! 🫶🏼🙏🏼🕊️✝️
Heather - God is guiding and Blessing every step you take. It was HIS plan all along for you !! Proverbs 16:7 “When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.” Continue your forward walk with Him and keep saying it LOUDER ... for those in the back ...lol !!! I love you my dear sister in Christ !! ❤❤💯❤❤🙏🙌🔥👑🔥
Heather, thank you for this reminder. I’ve been waiting for test results to come back and we’ll as a resolution of a situation with a very close friend of mine and I’ve been feeling so defeated and anxious and even though all week my devotionals have reminded me that God is the God of plot twists and He is in control and stop trying to do things on my own and trust in Him, I’ve been struggling. Thank you again for this reminder. I needed to hear this. ❤
God must be laying this topic on so many hearts today. I follow Homestead Tessi and she just posted a video today about facing fear and giving it to the Lord. How amazing!
Prayers for my princess who will turn 8 on Tuesday. The Lord has been giving her dreams. She asked me for a creative study Bible like mine for her birthday.
I love your channel. It is evident that you are my sister in the Lord! Praise the Lord for you. You are a light to in this dark world. Thank you so much for being here. Would you pray with me for my daughter? She is engaged to a good, godly man, but she is fearful and anxious though she has waited a long time. Will you pray she experiences God's peace and joy in this? Thank you so much! You are loved!
I absolutely will! Tell her to let go and let God! Right? hahaha Thats the enemy whispering in her ear, self doubting herself. Tell her to rebuke that in the name Jesus! Be happy! Satan hates marriage and hates joyful, Godly hearts!
I just realized I haven't gotten any notifications for any of your videos lately. 😮😔😏 When I wake up gripped with fear, I immediately start praying, and shortly after, it goes away. You're a great lady Heather. Thanks for your encouragement! ❤️🙂👍🙏🙏🙏🙏 Oh, in 2020, I bought a new NASB, and the apocrypha books, and a new book with Hebrew and Greek words, cordenance. 👍❤️ I talk to the LORD just like I talk to anyone else. And like you, all day long too. I tell HIM, I trust you LORD. I have to. I have no choice. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙂👍😢
2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. God gave me that verse back in mid-80s when 3am I was awoken by a huge bang and saw a ball of fire outside my 2nd floor window. Needless to say, it left me in fear, not knowing what I saw, but then that verse was given to me and i realized my fear isn't if God, he promises, power, love and a sound mind! Amen! That has got me through tough times
I so needed this today, thank you for posting. I was feeling alone and bereft and in need of help. I fell asleep praying for help after watching this. Today, two offers of help came to me without me asking, from unexpected sources. Thank the Lord and you, from the UK. 🥰🙏
Thank you for this! I needed this and I suspect many others need to hear these "fired up" words as well because they come from your heart and soul, and I dare say, I think they come from God as well! You have such a powerful faith. It's so beautiful Heather! Pure, simple, and so, so powerful! I'm so glad you have Him to walk with every day. I know what it's like to be "frozen" and I know how important it is to be thawed. We must move forward in this very chaotic, noisy, distracting world and focus on what's truly important! I'm so grateful and thankful to have found your channel! You are such a blessing to us all!!!
This was wonderful, thank you!!! Prayers to all watching, prayers to all praying and prayers to all needing prayers. This is what we need in such a day as this!! Awesome job Heather!! "But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have the fellowship with each other and the blood of Jesus, his son, cleanses us from all sin." John 1:7 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you Heather, this was for me. I am a recent widow and I really needed to hear your message today.
I am so sorry Rebecca. I wish not a single woman more would gain membership to this widows club. there is absolutely nothing worse. we don't only lose our person, we lose our own identity. our entire world shatters! Our finances disappear. In our case our health insurance vanished! Everything! I know a widow.....who not only lost her husband, she lost him in their house fire! So, she lost her husband and her home! All their memories. Gone! In my case, I lost my health. My physical being. My children injured. Surgeries they endured without their mom or dad there with them to soothe them. It's all so heavy. Give it to God....only he can lift that weight for you! Widowhood is so hard to navigate. I am praying over you for the healing and restoration of your heart. :( I am so sorry.
Thank you. I needed to hear that today. Today I went for a mammogram and they found something different on my right breast. I need to do a biopsy. I ask for your prayers that it will all turn out ok if God wills it. Thank you for your channel. God bless you.
you got it Peggy! I just walked that path a few months ago.....lay all that worry and anxiety at the foot of Jesus! Don't even give it an ounce of energy until the day of your biopsy! That helped me so much get through that experience and I am praying that your story ends up like mine....to be nothing to worry about!
I felt like I was the only one in the room with you. Thank you for your uplifting words. I have to remind myself I am a daughter of the most high. Thank you Sweet Heart for your obedience today. This old girl definitely needed to hear this today. God is Sooo Good !!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️
AMEN!!!! He is!!!!! I am so glad this touched your heart today. Have a blessed weekend, Linda!!!
:Linda, I felt like she was talking to me and believe me, I needed her too. I will pray for you also.
Wow wow ... This just touched me to the core of my heart. With tears and feeling his presence through you 🕊️🙏🤗❤️ thank you so much Heather for doing exactly what our Lord has called you to do. I love you Heather.
Thank you for being part of it all......the Holy Spirit is working and moving! Amen! I love you too, Sis!
Trust in God, ALL else will fall into place! Great message, God bless
We do not have a spirit of fear, but of power, love and sound mind. Thank You Jesus!
AMEN!!!!! YESSSSSS Shelli!!!!!!!
Amen.
Hallelujah ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
AMEN! 🙌🏻✝️💖🕊🔥
That which is not of faith is sin. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto thine own understanding in all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy paths.
My daughter just went thru something scary this week. I told her almost the same things you said. God has not given us a spirit of fear. And if one door closes, He will open another. And of course, everything worked out just fine. Thank you Jesus.
Your channel is a huge blessing to me……you are an encouraging woman of God. I am encouraged and blessed each Friday prayer circle.
Prayer request for my husband and I. I would like a way to open up for us to move to a homestead in Missouri to grow food, build a town and a place of worship, give homes to my siblings and daughter, and anything else the Lord would like to do there. Thank you, Kneady❣️
Thank you for the encouraging words. My husband passed away 3 months ago. We are both believers and I know I will see him again and I am so great full to God for that. However, I’m struggling. I feel like this black cloud will never lift. Maybe my expectations are to high, but I thought that after 3 months I would be doing better. If you or anyone else have any words of wisdom I welcome them. I also covet this groups prayers. Thank you
I am so so sorry. There is nothing heavier than that of a widows heart. I have sat in that deep sorrow. When your person dies, everything dies with them. A huge piece of who you are! I know for me,, my entire identity vanished! Who was I, if not Matt's wife? Being so critically injured and stuck in a hospital unable to move just made it all that much harder. Add to that injured children, that I was not able to see because of Covid, and I was isolated, injured, and alone. Dark days. I had no idea that sitting in that season, I had to be shattered! So that God could rebuild me. You my sweet sister, are sitting in the shattered season. But trust in Him, that he will rebuild you. And you will grow and realize just how strong you really are! You will be made anew! And your purpose, your roots, will be deeper! Have faith! I am praying for you!
The deeper the grief, the deeper the healing has to go... Be still, and let His deep peace do its work. Be patient, and let Him do His work in you. And at the Right Time, you will emerge and bloom again. He is preparing you for your life ahead. Just keep going. He will bring you through. Love, hugs and prayers. ❤🫂🙏✝️🦋🌷
Bless you. Really, 3 months is a very short time. I’m praying God strengthen and help you and lift you up. Here’s a good song that also includes how God will lift us up if we just keep on crying out to Jesus. It’s by Third Day called Cry Out To Jesus. 💐
Everyone’s grief is different. It has been 10 years since my mom died and I still get sad sometimes. I miss her and that will never go away and I wouldn’t want it to. Your grief will change over time. The Lord is with you through this difficult time, walking with you everyday giving you peace and Hope. He knows how you feel, He loves you and wants the best for you. You will feel joy again. Give yourself the time you need to grieve. I will be praying for you. ✝️❤️
Amen! Heather I believe many need to hear this, especially in the world we live in right now. This is not my home. In my walk with God for the past 4 years I have learned that it doesn't have to be complicated. I may not have scripture memorized word for word, but I know that's ok. God wants me just to talk with him, pray to him, and just make him a part of my life. To love Him as He loved us.
AMEN!!!! he just wants our hearts! Thats it!!!!!! This is not our home! Thank the good Lord for that!!!!
Amen! Great prayer circle and very encouraging! I do suffer from depression and loss of hope at times. I feel at times God has rejected me. I pray that it is not so and am blessed to live another day.
How true that is! God WILL give us more than we take because He wants us to learn to dump it at His feet and trust Him to be WHO He is...the I AM. It's not IF He will do that it's just a matter of WHEN. I struggle with anxiety and fear. It's sin and God tells me DO NOT FEAR! 365 times He tells me that in scripture. Thank you for your discussing this! I needed it...again!
AMEN!!!!!!! You have me thrown my shoe across the room over here, Vicki! hahahaha AMEN!!!! Shame can splinter into so many things......separate and divide. It's so heavy to carry! We feel shame when we know we are listening to the enemy whispering to us, we know we shouldn't.....we need to rise up and REBUKE it in the MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS! Amen!
having fear and anxiety is not sin. I don't know ,this video kinda rubbed me the wrong way
@@suzanneclark8579 we all have those emotions. They are human emotions. But to allow those emotions to build and fester, it is saying that God is not big enough to help me and to take care of me.
2 Tim. 1:7 God used this verse to heal my heart from the fear and hurt from a sexual assault as a young teen. For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. I have repeated so many years that I hear my son use it as he preaches. My DIL uses it often as well. You are so right this message was how I have focused on God this year. Just seek Jesus he is within you if you have that relationship with him. I have focused on becoming a prayer warrior this year.
❤❤❤ A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver. Thank you for this timely message. ❤
Love that! Thank you for being here Laura!
Thank you so much Heather. I have experienced so much pain and grief as I care for my disabled son, and watch him endure so much, from life altering brain surgery to daily life struggles to survive. For 43 years I have laid my burdens down for the Lord to carry. I would never have been able to endure the grief and pain, without our Lord, Jesus Christ, who carries us though the most grievous of times to the happiest of times.
AMEN! Praying for your son......I think there is a special place at the wedding table for people who suffer so much, so deeply, I truly believe that! The Lord uses them in such incredible ways, to touch so many hearts! They serve a great purpose.
The Lord bless you at every moment of every day! 💖
Heather,
I’ve been living in fear since January with all these ear problems. My fears are that every changes in my ears are because I am getting worse or “what if it’s a serious health problem” OMG I keep thinking like this 😭. God please I rebook all fears from my mind, souls and body. God please grant me peace, restoration/health and lots of happiness- please god I ask in Jesus name. Amen. 🙏🙏🙏
Heather please keep me in your prayers please and keep these Friday’s circle prayers ~ your a god sent. ❤️
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Heather, thank you for your openness and your willingness to be vulnerable before the Lord and us.
I love that you are passionate. ❤❤
Thank you for this timely message.
Thank you so much for being here and sitting with me in all of it. Before really knowing my Savior, I would have been too embarrassed to share or to sit and speak with no teeth, injured, feeling insecure, less than, ashamed. Shame is a wicked tool the enemy uses to keep us from our work. So, I pray and give it to God.....and keep moving forward as he guides me. Surrender.....I am still in this season of surrender.
@@TheKneadyHomesteader
You are truly an amazing warrior for our Lord.
You are so very loved by me and so many! Again, thank you, Heather. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Heather, your words were meant for me. I will try to shake off my constant fear and overwhelm now that I know it's not pleasing to or of our Lord.
You are so welcome.....he loves you! He has you!
Heather, you are so inspirational to me. You feel like a friend that I have always known and loved. I am struggling with what my purpose is and how I find it. I feel like watching your videos is helping me to stay calm and focused on what I can do to make myself stronger and better able to not walk in fear. I’m glad that I found your channel, and look forward to having your inspiration carry me through these difficult and dangerous times. The Lord most certainly has touched your heart and I am sure that He is so very proud of you. ❤
Heather you always come at the perfect time, god’s time. How beautiful. ❤
I pray it was a word for somebody today who needed it!
@@TheKneadyHomesteaderI needed to hear that! In past videos you mention there is purpose in the pain, purpose in the suffering. Those words have kept me going. 🙏🏼
Thank you Heather, This video uplifted me so much, We need the prayers of those who Love The Lord. God is working through you please Never stop posting these videos. 🙏💞🙏
You are so welcome! Thank you for that...... my spirit appreciates hearing that this is something that resonates with you! Such a blessing. I love when the Holy Spirit moves and works!
Amen! 🦋
Thank you Heather for your message. We all have worth. It is 8 months since my beloved passed away. Sometimes I do feel lost. But, I pray and cry. Tears can also be cathartic. I know that God has my back. We so need to turn off all of the negativity around us and be and believe in the Lord's presence. And, you are so right when you say there is nothing new under the sun. It's just another season. Prayers, peace and blessings to you and your family.
I’m so very sorry for your loss 💔😢🙏🏼
@@renewhn3821 thank you
Awh, Heather, thank you. These are words that I very much needed to hear. Please keep praying for my husband, Brendan, who had a severe stroke in February 2022. He still is not mobile and has problems with speech accompanied by a nasty head tremor. Thank you so much. You are truly special. Love from N. Ireland. ❤
Prayers please for my children.. Pray that God dissolves the enemy in their lives and puts the right people in their lives. Society looks so enticing to them .. Pray that God wraps his arms around them and show them that HE is what they need not the world or the things in the world. Pray for this momma's heart as well. Thank you and Prayer for all of you..
🙏
Thank you so much Lord for this video and for Heather's walk in public with you.
Such a great testimony.
I needed this strength today as I am struggling with shingles right now. In my mouth, too. I'd appreciate some prayer.❤
Thank you Father for always being faithful.
You are so welcome and I am covering you in healing prayers for total restoration! Lord, cover Anita in this deep time of physical pain and suffering, Father! Lift it for her, Lord!
Father I ask that you heal Anita, please take away the pain of these shingles and dry them up. Be close to Anita and watch over her and her family to, In Jesus Mighty Name I Pray Amen!
Thank you all so much! I'm a bit better today. God is so good!
I love when someone is fired up, because its contagious 🔥👍....when i caught this fire, i never looked back, i jumped all in, in the deep end, and kept on swimming. Jus recently in the past few years, its been pretty lonely because i have no Christian women friends. But this Friday prayer circle has helped me a lot. Your fire and passion has renewed me. This week i learned the "why" he has chosen my lifetime cross for me....and now i see clearly what it means and i literally can carry it in a completely different way. Praise Jesus for ever and ever and ever❤️❤️❤️❤️
AMEN!!!! Preach it, Sis!!!! YESSSSS!!!! Sometimes, when we are in the deep....carrying that weight of our own cross, we don't understand why, and sometimes the Lord makes it clear we aren't supposed to understand. But will you thank me for trusting you with this weight, even if I never tell you why??? Lord, YES!!! YES I WILL! Consider it all joy, brethren! All for God's Glory!
I am so glad you are enjoying our Fridays together.....even if it means listening to me rant a bit. hahaha God bless you, sis! God is good all the time, and he has us!

I just love your handle: theonewhomjesusloves. Wonderful!
Oh my goodness Heather! You are speaking directly to me about stress, anxiety and fear. Girl… thank you for heeding Gods message today. Can everyone please pray for me and my family? From my personal life to my new job I am being attacked by people and the evil one. It’s been a huge battle. Please help. Thank you so so much. God bless you all.
Covering you and your family in prayer. God's Word is our sword!
Heather, you spoke to me today!! I thank you for your encouragement in how to pray and I am going through many struggles right now and I have laid my burdens at God's feet!! I thank God for you!! Bless you for your deep faith and help for alot of Christians who need this encouragement!! Amen!!
That’s me I am frozen. I do pray & read scripture every day. I have anxiety that freezes me. I give it to the Lord all the time. I am also dealing with PTSD & physical issues. Please pray for me. Lord, help. Thank you for never leaving me. Amen
Praying for you 💚
Your message today was much needed. Thank you for loving your fellow man so much to share your love and
God's love for us all. Blessing to you and your family.
Thanks for listening and being so receptive to that message today. It really was laying on my heart with passion today!
Heather, I have always lived in a fear.. several in fact, don't know why or where they have come from. You helped me beyond measure tonight. Starting at bedtime I am going to be in charge of all my fear, anxiety, depression and use my power to overcome my feelings and I will pray to find what my calling is. That is my prayer, what is my calling to serve you Lord. Heather, thank you for tonight.. you have opened my heart and I intend to use my power to move forward.. AMEN
AMEN!!!!!! Start a gratitude journal.....between you and the Lord! Thank Him.....every day.....
Please pray for the reconciliation of my two daughters.
This is the prayer of my heart every day
Thank you🦋💗
Absolutely!!!!! Lord, cover Karin's daughters, and her entire family, Lord! The Holy Spirit is always working and moving, and I have faith that whatever the outcome, it will be to God's glory, that His will be done! Amen!

It will all come good at the Right Time. For you, peace, patience and prayer. God is working behind the scenes... His will to be done! ❤🫂🙏✝️👍
I do not have a spirit of fear. I know Jesus will help me but we are all human. I'm so happy to see you and your family. I saw a message from you but it disappeared before I could read it. It was 3 days ago. Lv and Prayers to all.
Thank u Heather…I am sitting here crying….we lost our son three days ago, I am so sad…please please prayer warriors pray for us…our hearts are broken, I believe he is with our God but this morning I am feeling so lost…needed your words…and will give it to him…please pray he sends us strength…
Praying for you. My heart stopped beating for a second reading this. Find support through friends and family and lean hard on the Lord.
the perfect words do not matter. In my deepest moments of grief sometimes all I could say was "Jesus". It is enough. Praying for you and your family.
Well this message is for me, what a relief when you give it to God I'm so glad I'm leaning on Him. Do I still have alot of bad days yes I do. I think about the footsteps prayer, when those bad days come know then He is carrying you. I hope everyone today just ask him to carry me through this ruff patch and he will. Jesus is real and He loves us all, Hallelujah!
AMEN! So beautifully said, Janet! God bless you, Sis and thank you for always being here!
@@TheKneadyHomesteader Thank You for always being here too! ❤️
The Lord will never leave us, or forsake us!! He is our only Hope!!
AMEN!!!!!! Say it louder for the folks in the back! hahaha
Oh Heather, you are such a blessing to me and so many others! As I watched you today, the tears just kept flowing. I lost my husband last year and since then, I have had so many financial problems. I am 75 and living on social security and now that he is gone, the amount of $$ that comes in is just not enough to pay all the bills. Everything has gone up except the amount of money I get each month. I had a part time job at my local church but was let go because they implemented a software program that took the place of my job, and at my age nobody wants to even give me in interview.
I know that God is right here with me and His plan for the remainder of my life is the best plan. I trust Him with every part of my being. Whatever that is, I know He knows what is best.
Please pray for the Holy Spirit to guide my steps in this season and I thank you for your sweet soul and having this prayer circle every Friday!
God bless you and your family....Nancy H
Covering you in prayers, Nancy! Stories like yours infuriate me and put such a fire in my belly! This should not be happening......not in our country, where all of us pay into the system to care for folks like yourself! It's just so wrong. Have faith.......the Lord will always protect his children!
Thank you sweet Heather for taking the time to respond to my email. I guess the most surprising thing to me was when my church let me go right after my husband passed and they knew my situation, but I have asked God to help me forgive those who made that decision. I have not been back there since and I watch it online because the teaching is really good with expository teaching which I love. I did order the book that you said you are using and even though I have been a believer since I was 18 years old, more Bible study is what I need. Thank you again...I have been praying for you since you lost your precious husband and for your little ones too.
❤
I love these prayer meeting devotional talks. I love praying and giving encouragement. Thank you for sharing in weakness and in strength. Your heart is so loving and I'm so thankful I found your channel Ms. Heather. Blessings on His Word in our lives. Amen. It's like a celebration into the Lord!🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Love you Heather, and I am really enjoying your prayer videos. I have followed your channel many many years. God Bless

it was the Holy Spirit speaking to you today, Joc!!!!! xoxoxox
You are so Amazing. I know where your strength came from. Your strength came only from God. It would be so Wonderful if everyone would call upon God for their needs. Thank you so much for encouraging others to pray to Our God because he will answer our prayers. Love you for your walk with God and spread his words to others so that others might give their hearts to him. God Bless You in all Abundance.
AMEN!!!!! Thank you for that, sweet Mama!!!!!
God had gifted you with teaching. I could listen to you all day. Love the fire. I've heard it said that God never gives you more than HE can carry. You bless me everytime I watch you. Much love to you and your family my sister.
Wow, thank you and I LOVE THAT!!!! God never gives you more than HE can carry! AMEN!!!!! I am kicking off my shoes and throwing it across the room right now! hahahahaha That is a WORD!!!!!
Hello fellow prayer warriors and those of us that are struggling with something.
Preach it Miss Heather❣️❣️❣️❣️
Oh my goodness my sweet friend. You were walking down my street in many ways!!! I don’t have fear because He has our days in His hands.
But,I catch myself not studying like I once did and not being as close as I once was. Thanks for the reminder…. It is like a kiss on the cheek from The Most High God💖💖💖💖💖
Thank you for the beautiful message and heartfelt words of faith and prayer.

Heather, few weeks ago I requested prayer for my 40 year old son with lymphoma. Blake was called to his Heavenly home on August 22 and I can tell you I rejoice he’s no longer suffering. I can also tell you our hearts are shattered. There is a great void in our lives that I know God will fill eventually. Am I angry with God? Maybe-I just feel so hurt that the many prayers we and so, so many others prayed on my sweet son’s behalf were not answered with earthly healing for him.. Yes, I know God had another plan-but Blake’s almost 3 year old son is without his dad-and he had a great one. His loving wife is without her wonderful husband and so many people who loved Blake are now adjusting to life without him in it. Depression? Maybe that’s what I’m feeling but as of now I don’t know what to do with it. I realize I’m not the first person to lose someone they love dearly and others have gone forward but I just don’t see how at the present. I pray but just feel that God doesn’t hear me anymore. Please pray that something shifts within me and I can come out of the awful sadness I never I had any idea could feel. Thanks for listening.
Oh Carolyn......I know we have spoken, but I just wanted you to know I am still praying over you and your family. It is OK, to sit and be still. It is ok, to be frozen with pain. God knows. He knows! He will sit with you in that valley. In that cleft of the rock. Sit and be still. Grieve. You don't have to move from that right now. Just sit and be still in it. The Holy Spirit will move you from that place when your heart is ready. And, from my own grief I have learned that God can take our anger upon his shoulders and endure it. He knows........ but will you thank me for trusting you with this pain, even if I never tell you why? That is his question to us, I truly believe. He is entrusting you, Blake's wife, his son......with this experience. With this cross to carry for a reason, even if it is never revealed to you. Consider it all joy....all part of work for the Kingdom.....and I truly believe there is a special honor to widows.....and orphans....... they are the most precious in God's eyes in the Bible. I hold onto that, sometimes with a death grip!
Dang, you preach!! Such a fantastic message and prayer today!! Thank you!
THANK YOU!!!!!
I needed this. I am in that spirit of mourning. Not because of a serious loss, but because of physical, spiritual and financial persecution I never could have imagined.
Our hens, the ones that not only fed us through job loss and inability to get unemployment through evil and tyranny, are now all gone. The hardest part is that our circumstance is not the last attack. Our local village is growing an evil power that I myself have never seen in the years we’ve been here.
I am grieving.
The past two weeks I e been so angry and deeply sad. Asking the whys, the how’s and even the ifs. God has answered and it may not be a no, it may be just be “a little while”. I am okay, but those “what ifs” have crawled out in the wee hours wondering how God will pick us up in the dumpster fire of the world .
I have started reading Old Testament again, God us reminding me of Moses and the frustration God had with him for doubting His abilities and promises. Then again with Pharaoh who purposely ignored God and cause mass famine and outbreaks on his people for His unbelief and disobedience.
Then…The Holy Spirit spoke to me through your tenderness. After several years in fight or flight mode, I have given those hens to someone we know and I in a time of deep grief and healing.
We are living in a very scary place right now with the inability to leave. We are stuck here…BUT GOD.
It’s time to block out the chaos around us and for me to just bathe in Gods Word.
I haven’t been to church regularly in a year. I haven’t had it in me to continue the movements. When I do go, I’ve been saying “God, I’ll just sit with You. I just need to sit with you.”
Thank you for this. God is moving. You are right. No Spirit of fear. Stop trying to lean on my own understanding and be still. God is who He says He is.
I’m usually the prayer warrior. Been that way for years. It’s what God blessed me with. This time. I’m tired. I’m really tired and I need to physically and spiritually heal.
I pray God will guide our footsteps and that He will reach everyone in deep despair. We have a God who Is who He says He Is. Amen.
My sweet sister in Christ, oh how it moved me to hear you extolling our Lord in the midst of your suffering! Please, please return to church. I speak from experience.... we are not meant to go it alone. you need the fellowship, and they need you.
"And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near." Heb 10:24-25

Thank you so much for your kind comment.
Could you please keep me in prayer? I haven’t been sleeping well chronically for a few years now. Satan knows how to manipulate and so that is one reason that keeps me from going. I’ve been in fight or flight mode for the past three years or so. My husband and daughter go regularly.. I think I’ve felt as though nobody there really cares about us. We’re there, but unless you’re in a group that knows each other, well, nobody notices.
I miss the church we used to frequent. It was a smaller church, but not one our daughter could thrive in as there weren’t many children her age.
I am broken at the moment, but I do know Gods light shines through broken vessels.
My intent is to get back to church regularly. I covet your prayers to find rest in my body and soul. To get back to a good schedule for my family and I.
Ty for your kind comment. ❤

I came back to say thank you again. The Holy Spirit spoke today. I felt prayed over and Gods presence.
I received text from my daughters youth group Pastor. She asked everyone for help in painting the youth group area and clean up the yard.
I didn’t think we would go, but asked my husband, thinking he’d be much later getting out. Turned out he was leaving early for the day. I asked if we could serve as a family in helping. They said yes.
So today, instead of self pity, God filled my heart with JOY that I haven’t felt in a while. Just by serving Him and those who needed it. Praise God. Ty for your prayer.God is speaking to my heart and filling it with needed healing.
I always look forward to praying with you on your Fridays video. Blessings. What you say is so true. We can get our earful of message that may impact our decision-making based more on fear instead of the guidance of the Holy Spirit
I need prayer for my children they are having such a hard time keeping their home. There is not work. Please pray for them to find their way. To have faith and know God will provide even down to the last second. Please pray for all my children to leave the world behind and focus on God's purpose for them thank you
Thank you..i needed to hear that darling..i admit im having a really hard time with my family.and i am at the end not knowing which way or where to turn..just watching and listening to you gives me some kind of hope..thank you heather..god bless you and your family always.xoxo🙏❤🙏❤
Thank you Heather. In Jesus name we pray, amen...❤❤
AMEN!!!!!
Heather, it has been such an exhausting and demoralizing period of time in my life. I am still in the process of attempting to get guardianship of my twins on the autism spectrum after their father died in January. The step witch is refusing to allow me any access to my family, and the legal battles continue. I saw a new lawyer last Monday, and we submitted a complaint to the court on Wednesday afternoon. I'm hoping for a hearing date sooner rather than later, and attempting to get Josh and Joe to a safe and secure home where their needs are being met. It's been a month since the guys were allowed to see me or spend time with me due to the horrific and obscene actions of family members on their father's side of the family. They just really need to have the stability of knowing that their mom loves them and wants only the best for them. I'm grateful for your prayers.
Father God, I pray for your tender mercies, and your hand to be over Deb and her beloved children....Lord, you know what's going on in this situation, and you know the enemies tactics.....I pray for healing and restoration for this family and the reuniting of mother and child, Father God. Cover her as she walks this inconceivable painful path.....sit with her Father God as she endures this trial.....surround her with the people she needs to help her.....and root her deep in her faith and trust in you, Lord.....that you will not let her fall, no matter what the outcome, you will use it for good.....I pray this in the mighty and Holy name of your son, Yeshua, Jesus Christ Almighty, Amen!
I have an infection and desperately need prayers to clear the infection without stronger antibiotics as they cause me so much discomfort, thank you 🙏
I struggle constantly....had a bad bout this am, and then the guilt I feel is so heavy! I needed this. I wamt to thank you Heather, you are so right! I need to share an experience I had about 4 months ago. I was sitting on the couch watching tv and I heard in my spirit out of no where I CHOSE YOU...I knew without a doubt it was the Lord, but I did not know what it meant. I am such a back slider at times and I feel so unworthy, but I still know it was Him. I am asking prayer for my daughters who have been on the outs for years. They never talk and we cannot be a family, they need salvation. also for my friend Dana who has cancer and chemo is not working. Cancer is spreading fast and she is losing her faith.....please pray. Thank you
Absolutely!!!!! Praying for Dana, your girls as well as for you!!!!!
Came across your message. Thank you for this word. Such a refreshing and simple word and right on time with what is going on in our world. You’re a blessing
thank you so much and I am so glad this resonated with you!!!!
Amen, Heather!
The degrridation in this country is appalling and I have to wonder how long God will put up with it...
I Pray that our country returns to God in a huge way, because this country will fall without him!
I Pray for the children in our country, I pray that God shields them from all of the evil and that he protects them from those who want to do harm to them.
God Bless you Heather and everyone who reads this. Have a blessed day!
Satan is not hiding anymore, and his minions are definitely loud and proud about doing his bidding.....and the enemy is definitely targeting our children in every way possible! The Lord told us how the end days would be.....it only gets worse from here I'm afraid. But not for long! We know how the story ends, hold onto that!
I really cannot understand how lomg God will tollerate the evil saying good and good saying evil…I am frustrated to see no judgment and sowing and reaping is happening. Thank you for having these Fridays! 😀🙏🏼
Yes....that evil spirit has tried to destroy me all my life.....
Welllll.....i learned how to be free of it...REPENTED of everything i knew of....FORGAVE everyone i could think of ...then REBUKED IT..
VOILA !!!
It is gone !!!!
Never to return.....
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Praise be to GOD!!!!!! Thank you for sharing that encouraging testimony with us!
We prepare and trust in him. And we have to rely on him. Now that being said I go through a lot of depression and you help me so much!
Amen Connie! You got this, sis!!!! Rebuke it in the Mighty Name of Jesus!
Heather this video came at a perfect time. I felt you were talking to me. I have felt lost these past couple of days. I have cried more than I have in years. I’m in a tractor during the day and it gives me time to think. I have been talking to our Father. I want to get closer to him. I feel like time has flown by and is flying by so fast since my children were little. My children are gifts from our Father and I am so thankful he picked me for their mom. I got even more gifts in my grandchildren. He has given me so much more than I feel I deserve and I am grateful. I pray that he hears my prayers and let’s me get closer to him. As I have gotten older I realize I have missed so many years of not having our Father not only in my life but my heart. Please keep these videos coming. I love hearing the word of God. Can’t wait for the new Barn 45 Bible study to start. Those have meant the world to me.
Draw near to God, and He WILL draw near to you. It’s a promise! And it’s the best kind of promise, straight from the Word of THE Promise Keeper, our LORD God! 🙌🏻✝️💖
Thank you Lord, Creator, Father for giving Jeannie a desire for more of You! Thank you for giving time to spend in prayer WITH You. I ask that You surround her with Your Holy Spirit Presence today, utterly fill mind and heart and every cell of her being with Your Light. Draw near and saturate her life with Your Word, with people who speak Your Truth and Your love and Your strength and Your joy! Open the eyes of mind and heart with Your understanding and give a hunger and thirst for the things of You that can never be satisfied. Lord, draw near. Lord, show Your light, Your Love, Your guiding hand. ~Amen and amen!
You are such a blessing, and I'm so happy to have found your channel. ♥️ Praise the Lord for giving us His word and the truth. 🙏🏻❤️
You are so precious and beautiful, inside & outside. This spoke to me so much. Thank you for your words spoken through the Heavenly Father.
You are so welcome and I am so over joyed that this message resonated with you!
Thank you Heather and this precious Friday prayer circle community! Standing in the Lord’s strength and grace another day, what a gift! Thank you Father God for this time to glorify you in this season. I love you all. 💖😘

@@hilarymccarthy1011 Thank you so much! 💖
I have had fearful situations but looking back God has always come through and we're going home very very soon😅
AMEN!!!!!! I can't wait!!!! Our skin suits....our earthly flesh suits have us all twisted sometimes, focused on the wrong things! Focused on the things the enemy tries to distract us with because he doesn't want us to know how important we are, how much we are loved by our Creator! Nothing can take us away from Him when our hearts are his.
Love you strong sister...thank you....I need that prayer.
I need prayer from alcohol and nicotine addiction...please...Thank you .
What a word from the Lord!!! Thank you Heather!!! Almost everything you said I am walking through in my life right now! Thank you for doing what God tells you to do! When you said if this is going on in your life right now and the wind chimes blew in the background I just busted out crying and felt the Lord was sitting in front of me through you answering all of my questions!! Thank you again!
ALL GLORY TO GOD! AMEN!!!!! I just got chills!
Thank you so much for this prayer circle. Many are blessed because of your wise words of wisdom! Your eyes sparkle with the light of Christ. I am so grateful! Bless You! Sending love from Nina in Colorado.
Thank you so much, Nina!!!! God Bless you Sis!
@@TheKneadyHomesteader THANK YOU!!!
Thank you Heather. I struggle with fear n need to memorize scripture that will help me fight that. Some ppl mention how much they want the Lord to come back n say so with such excitement. The thing that holds me back is knowing only one son has followed the Lord! I have two sons n one daughter of my adult children that have not come to believe!😢. Do I love my children too much bc of this! I think I can’t let it b a distraction but I don’t want them to b left behind if the Lord returns! Prayer please!💕🙏✝️🥰
I completely understand on many levels.....I will pray for your babies, that the seek and find the lover of their souls..... I hold onto faith. The Lord doesn't want anyone left behind and in these last days, we will see the great awakening unfold. I believe that in my spirit.
Begin to ask the Lord to send someone into ea unsaved adult child's life that they can relate to. It works, I've done it. Then thank him in advance & trust him to follow thru.

Heather - God is guiding and Blessing every step you take. It was HIS plan all along for you !! Proverbs 16:7

You are so welcome! Oh my heart! Makes me weep. God Bless!!!!!!
Heather, thank you for this reminder. I’ve been waiting for test results to come back and we’ll as a resolution of a situation with a very close friend of mine and I’ve been feeling so defeated and anxious and even though all week my devotionals have reminded me that God is the God of plot twists and He is in control and stop trying to do things on my own and trust in Him, I’ve been struggling. Thank you again for this reminder. I needed to hear this. ❤
Hello beautiful.. Finishing up my canning for the day. 💚🌱🍄🌸
ooooooooo what did you can???? I think next on my list are apples! apple cider jelly, apple pie filling, and blueberry apple bbq sauce! haha
@@TheKneadyHomesteader lobster mushrooms, corn, beans, pickles and relish. 🔥🌱💚 I'll have the mushroom vid up this weekend.
Such an encouragement to me, continue on woman of

so much love to you Linda! I am glad my little rant spoke to your heart. So thankful you are here!
Please pray for my young adult son who is a prodigal and my husband who doesn't know the LORD at all. Thank you! 💗💗💗
Thank you for this message!! This was SOOO GOOD! Praise the Lord for your sweet spirit 💗
God must be laying this topic on so many hearts today. I follow Homestead Tessi and she just posted a video today about facing fear and giving it to the Lord. How amazing!
Thank you Heather for this encouragement, made me teary eyed, your heart is so kind hearted, thanking Jesus for his amazing love ❤
❤Amen Amen Heather! God is really speaking through you, I have chills seriously. Love it! God Bless Heather🙏🙏🙏🙏

I am Jennifer…please pray for strength for me!
Prayers for my princess who will turn 8 on Tuesday. The Lord has been giving her dreams.
She asked me for a creative study Bible like mine for her birthday.
YES!!!!!!!! What a special gift that will be for her too..... I am always praying for your family, Jenn! You are an incredible mother and woman!
@@TheKneadyHomesteader you made me cry with those works. You're always in my prayers too. Love you Sis
I love your channel. It is evident that you are my sister in the Lord! Praise the Lord for you. You are a light to in this dark world. Thank you so much for being here. Would you pray with me for my daughter? She is engaged to a good, godly man, but she is fearful and anxious though she has waited a long time. Will you pray she experiences God's peace and joy in this? Thank you so much! You are loved!
I absolutely will! Tell her to let go and let God! Right? hahaha Thats the enemy whispering in her ear, self doubting herself. Tell her to rebuke that in the name Jesus! Be happy! Satan hates marriage and hates joyful, Godly hearts!
We are flying to Portugal on Sunday for a few weeks please Pray for our Safety during our flight and our time on vacation Amen
I just realized I haven't gotten any notifications for any of your videos lately. 😮😔😏
When I wake up gripped with fear, I immediately start praying, and shortly after, it goes away.
You're a great lady Heather. Thanks for your encouragement! ❤️🙂👍🙏🙏🙏🙏
Oh, in 2020, I bought a new NASB, and the apocrypha books, and a new book with Hebrew and Greek words, cordenance. 👍❤️
I talk to the LORD just like I talk to anyone else. And like you, all day long too. I tell HIM, I trust you LORD. I have to. I have no choice. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙂👍😢
Love that so much❤️
@@TheKneadyHomesteader Thank you Heather. 👍🙂
2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. God gave me that verse back in mid-80s when 3am I was awoken by a huge bang and saw a ball of fire outside my 2nd floor window. Needless to say, it left me in fear, not knowing what I saw, but then that verse was given to me and i realized my fear isn't if God, he promises, power, love and a sound mind! Amen! That has got me through tough times
Amen!!! And wow, what a strong testimony that is!!!!! I thank you for sharing that with us!
I so needed this today, thank you for posting. I was feeling alone and bereft and in need of help. I fell asleep praying for help after watching this. Today, two offers of help came to me without me asking, from unexpected sources. Thank the Lord and you, from the UK. 🥰🙏
Thank you Lord ! Ms. Heather Im so glad you talked on this,we are worriers!
You are so welcome!!!! Thanks for being here Donna!
Amen💜💜💜
The LORD wants us to be OBEDIENT, HOPEFUL, FAITHFUL and FREE in HIM💜

Thank you for this! I needed this and I suspect many others need to hear these "fired up" words as well because they come from your heart and soul, and I dare say, I think they come from God as well! You have such a powerful faith. It's so beautiful Heather! Pure, simple, and so, so powerful! I'm so glad you have Him to walk with every day. I know what it's like to be "frozen" and I know how important it is to be thawed. We must move forward in this very chaotic, noisy, distracting world and focus on what's truly important! I'm so grateful and thankful to have found your channel! You are such a blessing to us all!!!
This was wonderful, thank you!!! Prayers to all watching, prayers to all praying and prayers to all needing prayers. This is what we need in such a day as this!! Awesome job Heather!!
